No, she just tried to lead a seditious mob into the House chamber where lawmakers were hiding on Insurrection Day.Resisting arrest starts out as a crime. It is not minor. Babbitt did not resist arrest.She took part in an armed insurrection against the US.Prosecutors: No charges for officer in Capitol riot shooting
WASHINGTON (AP) — Federal prosecutors will not charge a police officer who shot and killed a woman as she climbed through the broken part of a door during the insurrection at the U.S.apnews.com
"Federal prosecutors will not charge a police officer who shot and killed a woman as she climbed through the broken part of a door during the insurrection at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6. Authorities had considered for months whether criminal charges were appropriate for the Capitol Police officer who fatally shot Ashli Babbitt -- The Justice Department’s decision, though expected, officially closes out the investigation.
Prosecutors said they had reviewed video of the shooting, along with statements from the officer involved and other officers and witnesses, examined physical evidence from the scene and reviewed the autopsy results. “Based on that investigation, officials determined that there is insufficient evidence to support a criminal prosecution,” the department said in a statement."
This sets a very dangerous precedent....It basically gives officers a blank check to gun down people, unarmed people, good people.....and the officer face no consequences for his or her actions...Because of this decision, cops can essentially gun you down just because you didn't obey an order they gave -- they can gun you down then claim they feared for their safety while dehumanizing you as some violent person or a member of some angry mob... even tho that person is unarmed and was posing no threat.
Now to be fair, it's perfectly OK for certain types of unarmed people to be gunned down for not obeying cops or maybe using inappropriate language towards cops that could cause them to fear for their safety; but it's different when you are actually fighting against a tyrannical government who stole an election and your only recourse is to storm the Capitol to voice your grievances, cosplay in Neo-Nazi and Neo-Confederate apparel, joke about executing the VP and perhaps scare congress members into overturning the election for you and stuff...
She got justice.
LOL Most of those "insurrectionists" are charged with trespassing.
Justice?? Another statement to stupid to answer.
She got justice.
In fact, she got YOUR justice.
Killed in the act of committing a minor (in your words) crime.
From Trayvon Martin to George Floyd you and yours applaud the deaths of Black people because they "resisted."
Unless, of course, your problem is NOT about the crime and the race of the criminal?
